GeneDisc® Technologies
For an easy, rapid and specific
detection of Salmonella spp. in food
FoodNet Annual Reports show that Salmonella spp. is the first
cause for foodborne diseases and one of the major causes for
FDA & FSIS recalls. Therefore, most countries have
implemented strict criteria for this pathogen monitoring.
In response to industry concerns, Pall GeneDisc Technologies
provides an ideal solution for food processors in need of a
reliable control of Salmonella spp. risk.
GeneDisc System Benefits
Rapid — Accelerate the batch release of your short shelf life
products and raw materials. While other methods such as
immunoassays or culture methods require up to 3 days, the
Pall GeneDisc method allows a detection of Salmonella in as
fast as 10 hours.
Easy to use — GeneDisc solutions are designed for routine
use. Implementing PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) has
never been this easy.
High throughput capability — Process up to 96 samples
DNA extractions simultaneously in less than one hour.
Modular — System modularity fits your throughput needs: up
to 96 samples can be analyzed in a one hour PCR run.
A Solution Designed For Food Industries
In line with MLG 4 and ISO 6579 – NF VALIDATION and
AOAC certified method.
Test multiple pathogens simultaneously – Analysis with
pathogenic E. coli O157 or STEC is available and does not
require any additional hands-on time nor enrichment.
